Blogger's Quilt Festival - Fall 09

I am participating in the Blogger's Quilt Festival. The quilt I chose is my Decadent Victorian quilt.

This quilt has to be my favorite! My girlfriend Christine made a quilt out of a jellyroll in this fabric and i fell in love with it. I so never would have purchased this jellyroll based on the colors, but once I saw her quilt I ran out and purchased one. I held on to this jellyroll for quite some time because I knew I needed just the right pattern and had a difficult time finding one until I bought the book Jelly Roll Quilts.

The pattern is called Daisy Chain in the book Jelly Roll Quilts by Pam & Nicky Lintott and is done with one jelly roll of Decadent Victorian and a bit of yardage. I just love the colors in this quilt.

And that cute little thing in the picture is Maggie Mae...isn't she just adorable! She is our neighbors dog, but I would take her in a heartbeat! She's just so happy :O)

I have been married for 22 years, started quilting in January '08 and am an absolute addict! My husband and I have his and her Harley's and it's the best thing we've ever done...I call it our mid-life crisis.
